Progress!

Larry sat all by himself!  Now, it was a side sit not a full squat sit and it was on a cushion on his bed, but it was progress!  He’s doing really well with “here” and “heel”.  Larry’s inmate trainer says that Larry responds best with a soft gentle tone of voice.  Larry has been working on figuring out this whole bed sharing thing.  At first he didn’t like the idea of sharing his space, but he has come to understand that it’s not a bad deal at all.  He and Marshall lay around together napping and watching the human world.  His fear of shiny floors is improving, but he prefers to start out against a wall for safety.

Larry loves his treats and will try whatever he is asked to do for a yummy bite!  He enjoys time in his kennel and hanging out with his humans.  He responds well to both his primary and secondary inmate trainers.
